Pirate Card Game
Gold n’ Grog is a pirate card game with press your luck gameplay for 2 to 6 players played in about 20 minutes. During your turn you will draw cards from the center draw pile up to a total of 5 cards. You can choose to stop at any point and collect your loot. But BEWARE – Sharks and Skeletons await the unwary! If you draw one of these enemies and find yourself without a Cutlass, you lose your draw and your turn is over! Along the way, you will find Action Cards! Use them to boost your draw or to hinder your opponents!
The game ends when all the cards at the center of the table are gone! The pirate with the most loot wins. Be on the lookout for the legendary Golden Grog! There’s only one, and it’s the most valuable of all the treasures.

We bought Gold n’ Grog a couple weeks ago and my kids have not stopped playing it! As in the game has been played at least 3 times every day for the last 2 weeks. The game is simple enough to be explained in 5 minutes but each round of the game has been different due to the cards all being random. We’ve taught it to a bunch of neighbor kids that have come to play and they’ve all wanted to play it again. And the neighbor kids don’t come from gaming families and usually come over to play a video game, which I think shows how great this game is! The kid in Pre-K was able to play by himself by the end of the first game and yet the group of adults I played with all had fun playing multiple rounds as well. This game has been so much fun for all us!

This game is so simple and SO FUN! Great quick game that all ages can play and the messy draw pile system keeps the game fresh and fun each round. Can’t recommend this game enough and for $20, buy two and give one to a friend.

A push your luck game with trade mechanics too?! Yes please! My wife and I love to host game nights every week and this game finds the table every time! Friends and family that we have played it with love it as well. Also, for those that don’t enjoy shuffling cards, this game is perfect because you can mix it on the table and leave it in a messy pile to draw from. No shuffling! This game is seriously so much fun!

We love this game! Every time we have played it with friends, they end up asking us where to buy it because they love it so much too. Really quick and easy to understand, as well as really fun to play in groups. Love it.

Love it!!!!! My kids are playing Gold n’ Grog almost every day. It’s so simple that my little ones are playing without too much help. It is fast, fun and very entertaining. A great game to introduce and encourage kids to play card/board games. This is now a family favorite!

I like that it’s an easy game to learn and play. Mechanics are simple but enjoyable. People of all ages can enjoy it.

My family often plays board / card games when we get together. Gold ‘n Grog has become a family favorite. It was easy to learn and a game that everyone wants to play again when it’s over, frequently causing them to stay later than they had planned. Lots of fun to play. Recommend highly.

1. Family friendly. So long as you don’t mind an innocuous pirate theme. Its another story if you decide to put on sea shanties in the background though. Never go full pirate. You never get those dang songs out of your head.
2. Easy to play/score. The box says 10+ but our 3 year old is able to play with a small bit of help. She was easily able to memorize the cards by the pictures and remember what they do. She may be a little advanced for her age, so I’ll confidently say that its a 6+ game. The base game makes for quick learning and faster play times. Its an easy concept similar to uno, monopoly deal and a dash of poker. The expansion pack makes play time longer and is slightly more strategic. More akin to Settlers of Catan, but without a board. The games are not so long that you give up hope on life though. Often it will end before you’re ready.
3. Evenly stacked. You can strategize and get ahead, but there is aways a chance that the underdog comes into some luck or the other players decide to focus their efforts on obliterating you. Keeps you on your toes. It also keeps kids from getting discouraged because they have a chance at winning against the adults.
4. Fun theme and original twists. The cards have fun illustrations and the actions are mostly interactive. One aspect of the game encourages attentiveness and engagement, which is seeing every card that each player draws into their hand. You might think this takes away from the game, but it actually makes it more fun. There are just enough action cards that each game is varied so that it doesn’t burn out. My kids have been playing enthusiastically every day for almost a month now and none of them are sick of it. Thats rare for a card or board game.
5. Versatile. 2 players is too few in my opinion, but my kids are happy enough to play that way if everyone isn’t up for a game. Its most fun with 4-5 players and gets a little thin with 6+ players.
6. Rules are ever so slightly vague. On a vagueness scale of “Everybody’s Getting It” to “Annulled Marriage”, I’d give it a “House Cat Rolls Its Eyes As It Searches Out Some Peace And Quiet”. So firm enough to consult the rule book, vague enough to make a couple house rules. You can’t Parlay a Parlay, and you can’t Flintlock a Flintlock. Never forget.
